back in the swing of things.

ahhhh...back to my own life. which unfortunately at this point only means working a lot, but thats okay because there are no 10 and 12 year olds around and no extra dogs and i am in my own bed sleeping as late as i want. and i am actually really happy to be back at my job. i have missed the hospital and the kids a lot. so...yea!! i got off mom duty on friday night and went and hung out with kathryn at her high school where she teaches...so basically i went from elementary school kids to high school kids. hahahaha. she was sponsoring a group of her high school kids who were doing the relay for life fund raiser overnight. we actually had a good time laughing and hanging out, in tents...on a high school football field. hahahaha.

then saturday i slept in for as long as i could possibly sleep and it was grand. i ran around and got some errands done, but basically i just really enjoyed hanging out on my couch and being in my apartment. i watched the masters, baked some monkey bread, and then i took a late afternoon nap and then had to go work the night shift at work.

work was soooooo long. hahahaha. we had all brought food and eaten so much that i think it was a bad idea because no one could stay awake. we took turns taking naps in 15 minute intervals. it was bad. really bad. so, a long night and to make things worse, i for some reason had signed up to run a 5k with alyssa on sunday morning. what was i thinking!?? i got off work at 7am and then went straight downtown to do this run. 12 hour overnight shift and then i am gonna run!?? i am crazy apparently. and of course it was like the coldest night it had been in weeks...44 degrees outside!! regardless, i was pretty proud of myself for even showing up and i had it in my mind that i was going to be walking part of the race, but i surprised myself and ran the whole thing!! i finished in right about 30 minutes and did not stop to walk once!! thats huge for me! and the best part about it was, i felt so accomplished after it was over and so proud of myself for going AND i was home in bed by 9:30. perfect.

i slept all day, got up and had to work and overnight shift again sunday night. this one wasnt as bad as saturday night and i managed to get through it pretty quickly. i left work this morning and came right home to sleep and then of course...had to go right back today at 3. this is what i mean by just always working now that i am off babysitting. work, sleep, work, sleep....

tomorrow i have the day to myself and then i have to work the night shift again at 7 and then wednesday i have class and then i think i am gonna hit the road to wichita falls. yea!! i am really looking forward to going home and seeing my family and random friends and more importantly the CRAWFISH BOIL!! yea!!

so thats really all...nothing exciting to write about due to all the work and then sleep when i am not working. i am gonna spend some of my money that i made last week on plane tickets. one to philly and one to chicago!! yea!!
